Atom Health & Fitness, fit for fundraising

Fundraisers are thanking the staff and members of a local gym for their ongoing support of Alice House.

Atom Health & Fitness, based at Wynyard have raised nearly £3,000 over the last three years for Alice House which is their nominated charity.

They’ve been inventive in their fundraising efforts which have included Alice House event sponsorship and their own in-house events; the most recent was a sports day themed fun day, and various challenges for Atom members to take part in.

Craig Maskell, a Personal Trainer at Atom, has also run the Great North Run twice in support of Alice House. The club is planning future events and further projects with Alice House.

Greg Hildreth, Alice House Corporate Fundraiser said “We are delighted to have the support of Atom and its members; the team are great to work with and it’s lovely to hear about how they use their facilities and many ideas to help raise money for patients. This support is so important to Alice House and helps to ensure we can continue providing our specialist care to patients and families within our community.”

Atom Director, Phil Lamb said “We partnered with Alice House soon after opening the club, the aim is to help raise funds and awareness for such a great charity. We have since run a number of events that have been supported by the generous Atom community; such has been the generosity of our members that we have been able to make some significant donations to Alice House. It’s been a lot of fun along the way and we aim to run many more, a little bigger and better every time!”
